OK, Now I'm confused. I was going to put a K/N conical on my r/t, because
I thought it would help me with mileage as well as power all through the
powerband, but I'm I understanding this correct that If I get rid of the
stock airbox, I could see loss in the low end?

I guess the ideal situation would be to have 2 small filters, but only use
one below 2500rpm and have the second one open up above 2500rpm to get max
airflow. Then you can have your cake and eat it too :^)
I think they make rpm-actuated solenoids that could do this for you (MSD?).

You could probably put the second tube on the opposite side of the airbox
(caddy-corner from first tube) and you would get a forced swirl, but you
want to force it counter-clockwise (in the northern hemisphere) and direct
it downward into the TB.

As far as the filters are concerned, you could mount them up behind the
grill & run dryer hose back to the airbox.
